LAX20 and failover Orbi RBR750
Hi,
Currently I own a RBR750 at home with 2 satellites.
My spouse and myself are both remote workers and we need to have a reliable secured connection when we are not at home. So the LAX20 fits our needs, but I would like to know if when we are at home, can we use it to backup our primary fibre connection ?
Let’s say the LAX20 will be wired to the RBR750, and if suddenly the fiber connection drops, the LAX will be able to backup the connection through RBR750 wifi ?
Thanks.

It does have failover but its also a rather large device to use for traveling. Why not use something like the M6 hotspot versus a larger device?
Plus fibre is pretty reliable. If it was me, I'd pick the mobile device for my traveling needs and just have the mobile router as backup for those rare times you do need it.
